The Latin America Overland Travel Blog

Hello & Welcome!

You have found the Overland Travel Blog for Latin America.

You might ask: “what is overland travel?”. It means that we drive our own vehicle, often taking roads less travelled. This form of travel is becoming more popular and gives us independence from set itineraries. We can stop wherever we like – just for a photo, or to see things not commonly mentioned in guidebooks.

We love sharing our impressions and knowledge gained along the way. If you want to explore Latin America in your own vehicle, you will find a wealth of information on our site.

So stay around and explore with us!

Meet Yasha and Juergen. Yasha is Australian by birth, Juergen was born in Germany and is Australian by choice. Currently we are on our second "Pan Americana" trip, although now you can find us more often on some back roads. Our aim: to encourage you to take a similar journey, be it down to Patagonia, or an extended road trip through Europe or Asia. Just dare to go!We drive and live in our self-built overland camper, called "Berta", who was conceived in Germany.You can read more on our "About Us" page.

Trucks in Peru have colourful art painted on the back doors – occasionally the sides too. They move on all streets – so why not call them ‘street art’?

August 10 – Ibarra
We had come to Ibarra to get a visa extension. After several days trying to get through the bureaucracy, we gave up yesterday because we just don’t have enough time left on our vehicle permit. We will now leave Ecuador for Colombia before August 22.
